Enough seats have been sold to cover the expenses of the extra show, but there are a number of good1 tickets left. They may be obtained at the box office of the Whitney thea- ter up to the time of the performance tonight. The members of the cast, chorus and some of the committeemen will entrain at 9:30 o'clock Monday for Toledo, where they will present the initial production of the trip at the Auditorium theater. The company leaves the same night for Chicago, where the second show will be staged at the Auditorium theater on Tuesday night. On the two following evenings, the opera will appear in Detroit and Sag- inaw, respectively. After the Saginaw performance the troupe will break up, to allow the men to spend part of the spring vacation at their homes.- Capacity houses will greet the opera on the trip, according to the reports of the alumni in the cities on the route. Chicago and Detroit have been entirely sold, out for some time. rremstad is best known as a grand opera singer, especially excelling in the leading Wagnerian roles, she has won much renown for her ability to charm in the singing of the German "Lieder," and smaller forms. Her musical career began as a mere child, and, at the age of five, she appeared in concert as a pianist. Subsequently she taught music in St. Paul and Du- luth, and later developed her vocal powers. Of the first group of songs, some of the best known of Schubert's, pref- erence Was strangely given to "Der Wanderer an den Mond," which she was required to repeat, while the in- dominitable "Erlkoenig" escaped with- out the applause it deserved. In the group of Brahms' songs, the "Vergeb- liches Staendchen," and "Von Ewiger Liebe," were best appreciated, the the plans having been made at a meet- ing of the committee yesterday after- noon. In order that the minstrel show will not conflict with the Glee and Mandolin concert scheduled for the same night, the latter organization has consented to postpone its concert until a later date. The Boat club show comes as the result of the anxiety of the officials to take advantage of an offer by the De- troit alumni backing the Boat club. The Detroiters are willing to give two new eight-oared shells to the organ- ization this spring, valued at $1,200, provided that the club can raise enough money to build a boat house for them. If everything goes well, this will give the club a big start in the work for a! Varsity crew, the goal toward which the club is striving. Some money also is needed to finance the regatta. An-!

A varied and elaborate program of entertainments for the visitors is pro- mised by the alumni. Banquets and automobile rides are among the offered attractions. Olive Fremstad, who gave a concert at Hill auditorium last night, stayed over in Ann Arbor in order to view tonight's performance of the opera. 'he university committee of the state legislature, who are now in Ann Arbor,, will occupy a box. Edward J. McNam- ara, who is visiting in Ann Arbor on his way to Missouri to give a number of concerts with Mme. Schumann- Heink, will view the production to- night. McNamara was a student in the university school of music last year. Tennis tryouts took their first out- door workout yesterday afternoon, when about eight enthusiasts turned out to keep warm the two courts which are now in shape for play. The Var- sity courts have had some attention paid to them, and were in fine early season shape for the men who appear- ed for the initial practice yesterday. The early appearance of tennis try- outs this year bids fair to help out the team in material fashion, the racquet- ers being on the court two weeks earli- er than last year's squad. Some mem- bers of the early season squad which has been tentatively selected by Cap- tain Reindel will remain in Ann Ar- bor to work during the vacation peri- od, while other tryouts for the team will take their practice at their homes. After the holidays, the list of men who have been selected for the early season squad probably will be made; public, and the use of the Varsity courts will be restricted to them, the other courts by that time being in shape to permit the other men taking their work on them. If the plans of for- mer years are followed, a tournament will be held before going east, the eight high men in which will qualify for the tryouts for the squad, which is composed of six men. From the six men on the squad four are picked to make the eastern invasion. C. N. Mack, who won the Comstock trophy and the campus championship in last fall's All-Comers tonrnament was out yesterday with "Chuck" Craw- ford, runner-up in the fall play. Mack seems to have lost none of his steadi- ness through the winter, and if he de- velops the aggression which he show- ed in his last match in the fall, he will; be one of the most likely men out for this year's team. MEN TO GET SPECIAL INSIGNIA Certain Rifle Club Members Will Have Numerals and Jerseys Certain members of the Michigan ri-+ fie team will be awarded special in- signia, as a result of the action taken by the athletic board of directors at its meeting yesterday afternoon. To the men who have shot among the first high five during more than half the rifle matches of the year, the new in- signia will be awarded. The design will consist of a target and the year numerals of the man to whom the award is made. The insig- nia will be on jerseys, which will be given to the men. A petition from the architects, re- questing extra sets of numerals for their basketball team, was denied by the board. The reason for the refusal was given as the fear of setting a prec- edent for granting extra numerals. The architects based their request on the fact that a couple of their men were injured in the early games, and others had to be substituted.

Howard Drew, the colored sprinter from the coast, will be on hand, and with a record of 18 races which have beentimed officially in 9 4-5 and better, the dusky champion is a heavy favorite. Last year he won the 100 with ease, "Howdy" Seward, the Michigan entrant, finishing third. The coach has announced that he will take a broad jumper who can ne- gotiate 22 feet, and Johnny Ferris is already working out with this in view. Ferris is jumping much better this sea- son than he ever has before, and if he continues at the present rate, should make the grade. "Al' Robinson, the freshman sprinter, may also take a' crack at broad jumping. "Robby" has a sneaking no," that perhaps he can do the required distance, although he never spent much time working at this in "prep" school. Many sprinters develop into good broad jumpers, as is evidenced by the fact that Drew, the California entrant, frequently com- petes in the leap. Wilson is working at the pole vault, and the coach states that if he betters the 12 foot mark by a few inches, hye will take him along. Corbin is work- ing at the hurdles, and the classy race the youngster ran in Chicago at the A. A. U. indoor meet, indicates that he stands an excellent chance of making the grade. Cross is working with the weights, although an injury has laid "Back to your room!" said a burly' Ann Arbor policeman to a student who thought himself clever enough to out- wit an Ann Arbor landlady about the hour of midnight last night. After much thought and a great deal of de- liberation, the freshman decided that the only way to be within the law, and at the same time leave his lodgings, was to quietly and stealthily leave his erstwhile abode and hie himself to quarters more pleasing than the suite of rooms which he occupies at pres- ent. Just at the weird and ghostly hour, when the spirits stalk, and as the li- brary chimes were chiming, the trem- bling youth, blushing at his own bold- ness,by means of a confiscated clothes- line, lowered his trunk and other sun- dry articles to the ground. BUMP! BUMP! BUMP! Ah! the load was bumping against the house, and what was worse, at about the same time the villianess (that is the landlady) heard a noise as if something were "tapping, gently tapping, tapping at her cham- ber door." Quickly adjusting her teeth, after seizing them from the glass of water in which they were reposing for the night, she stepped to the phone and' called up police headquarters, asking them to send up two of their huskiest men at once. With the usual speed, celerity, grace and all the rest of it, which characterizes the Ann Arbor po- lice, two burly members of the force rushed to the rescue of the distressed woman.
